    Which is the better buy?

    1) Tamaraw FX GL 5K engine, excellent body, underchassis, interiors, dual aircon. Don't know about engine condition, but is in running condition. Selling at 190K negotiable.

    2) Mitsubishi L200 for bidding by Land Bank. Branch service waiting tob be auctioned. Running condition before put in storage for 5 months (not used/fired up since then). Fair body condition, no aircon. Minimum bid: 90K.

    Thanks.

    This is between picking an apple and an orange since it's an AUV vs pickup. But I'm still going to answer your inquiry with a question, what's the year model of both?

    Both in good condition, i'd easily pick the L200. Iba kase naka pick-up eh. Big tires lang and its already 1000x pogi points na ang dating.

    but, as is, in your choices i'd get the FX. Mas Ok condition and got AC. Also, not sure naman na makukuha mo yun at 90K as it is bidding. Another, repossessed may mga nagsasabi na pag repo minsan binabalasubas na ng may-ari ang pag-gamit bago ipahatak. Hirap na.

    Madali lang ata i-restore ang L200.

    Mga tsikoteers, lets help julskey breakdown the costs in restoring the L200 para may idea sya.

    1) Engine (Overhaul ???)
    2) Interior (Aircon etc)
    3) Exterior (Dents, Rusts etc.)
    4) Suspension & Underchassis (Kalampag etc)

    Julskey, please post po ang year and if a picture is available. Please post it.

    Good to know that sir... You could also check tsikot.biz for some ads. A direct seller is always better than banks imo.

    Given the following choices, it all depends on the use of the vehicle. If you need to move people, get the FX. For cargo, L-200. That simple.
